How to achieve it

Assign an owner for each alert
Acknowledge ownership with an emoji reaction
Use threads for context and discussion
Log activity in your CRM
Assign follow-up tasks automatically
Use reminders for next steps
Escalate only high-priority leads

Quick win

Adopt one rule: every alert gets an owner within five minutes
